YFe1-xCoxO3 (x=0, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 1) perovskite solid solutions were synthesized by thermal decomposition of the cyano-metal complexes Y[Fel-xCox(CN)(6)]center dot 4H(2)O. All perovskites belong to the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Mossbauer spectra at room temperature show that samples with low Co3+ content are magnetically ordered, while samples with high Co3+ content are paramagnetic. A clear decrease of the magnetic order temperature was observed by magnetization vs. temperature experiments. At high temperatures, YFe0.3Co0.7O3 is paramagnetic and a non common increase of magnetization is observed. The later can be related to the thermal excitation of Co3+ in low spin (LS) configuration to intermediate (IS) or high spin (HS) configuration. Along the different compositions of YFe1-xCoxO3 solid solutions there is a competition between weak ferromagnetism (WFM) and superparamagnetic (SPM) clusters. WFM due to Fe3+ cations prevail in rich Fe3+ samples (x=0 and 0.3) and the Fe3+ cations that form SMP clusters prevail in the sample with x= 0.7. Besides, in the sample with x= 0.5 we postulate a slight prevalence of WFM due to Fe3+ cations. For YFe1-xCoxO3 with x= 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7 neutron powder data at 2,150 and 350 IC were refined with the irreducible representation Gamma(4) (A(x)F(y) G(z)). (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
